Are your local channels on your receivers? There are a couple of methods you can use to just see the football channels. Set one of your custom guides to only these channels. I'm doing that right now for just the Olympic channels. There is also the quick Tune where you have nine channels quickly available.

I'm pretty sure you are right that the channel will be blacked out and he will have to watch his local channel. But, won't gamesearch kick in when he turns to that channel and find it or him? I can't remember it's been a couple years since I've had Sunday Ticket.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."

Game search is a very slow way to go when you know where the game is on. Only really useful when you don't know where you can get the game like some college stuff.

How does it know where you are? the idea of To Go is to watch it no matter where I am on my computer so if I am out of town and want to watch a game that is showing on a local channel back home but not where I am I should be able to watch it
